[As] a jewel of gold in a swine's snout, [so is] a fair woman which is without discretion (11:22) The desire of the righteous [is] only good: [but] the expectation of the wicked [is] wrath (11:23) There is that scattereth, and yet increaseth; and [there is] that withholdeth more than is meet, but [it tendeth] to poverty (11:24) The liberal soul shall be made fat: and he that watereth shall be watered also himself (11:25) He that withholdeth corn, the people shall curse him: but blessing [shall be] upon the head of him that selleth [it] (11:26) He that diligently seeketh good procureth favour: but he that seeketh mischief, it shall come unto him (11:27) He that trusteth in his riches shall fall: but the righteous shall flourish as a branch (11:28) He that troubleth his own house shall inherit the wind: and the fool [shall be] servant to the wise of heart (11:29) The fruit of the righteous [is] a tree of life; and he that winneth souls [is] wise (11:30) Behold, the righteous shall be recompensed in the earth: much more the wicked and the sinner
(11:31)
